Problem mounted file system (permission denied) [SOLVED]

[Seydoo]

Hello,

My Linux is this one : Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.6 (Santiago)

I just install FOG 1.2.0 and try to upload my 1st image and I have an error message during the upload process :

Checking Mounted File System …mounting x.x.x.:/folder/images/dev on /images failed : permission denied

An error has been Detected!

Fatal Error: Failed to mount NFS Volume : permission denied

Computer will reboot in 1 minute.

In my fog web page management i changed the storage folder to /storage/images (/storage is a mount volume with a disk of 500GB)
First I moved the /images in /storage, i thought this was the problem so i removed it in its initial location (/)

then I used the command :

/]# chmod 777 /storage
/storage]# mkdir images
/storage]# chmod 777 /storage/images

I’m almost new whith Linux so perhaps i did something wrong ?
Sorry if it isn’t very clear, my english is not very good

Can you help me please ?

error while writing the error message :

read “Checking Mounted File System …mounting x.x.x.:/Storager/images/dev on /images failed : permission denied” instead of “Checking Mounted File System …mounting x.x.x.:/folder/images/dev on /images failed : permission denied”

Try :
https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Image_Upload:_Error_Checking_Mount

[Seydoo]

.mntcheck is present in /images and /images/dev (i uses the touch command as explain in wiki) but there’s still the message
vi /etc/export give me this :

/images *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=1,)
/images/dev *(rw,sync,no_wdelay,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=2,)
/storage/images *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=1,)
/storage/images/dev *(rw,sync,no_wdelay,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=2,)

(I just add /storage line and keep the 2 1st lines)

Beast question:
The user in the “storage Management” is the same user that have the permission ?

[Seydoo]

here are the right on /images in /storage

drwxrwxrwx 4 root root 4096 21 mai 09:29 images
and for /dev in /images :
drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4096 21 mai 09:29 dev

In storage management the user is default create by fog (username fog)

[Slowave]

Can you just try to put the user root in “Storage Management” and test the upload ?

And on your server:

ls -laR /images

[TheKoR]

Change /etc/export to :

/images *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=1,)
/images/dev *(rw,sync,no_wdelay,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=2,)
/storage/images *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=3,)
/storage/images/dev *(rw,sync,no_wdelay,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=4,)

/storage/images/dev *(rw,sync,no_wdelay,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=4,)

Done but problem still exist
do i have to del /images lines and just keep /storage lines ?

Here is a recap of my tree :

/images
/images/dev
/images/postdownloadscripts
/storage
/storage/images
/storage/images/dev
/storage/images/postdownloadscripts

In storage management image path is /storage/images

[Seydoo]

Something strange in the error is this section :

Checking Mounted File System …mounting x.x.x.:/folder/images/dev on /images failed : permission denied

in wiki the “mounting on” isn’t present, could it be the real problem and if yes how can i change this ?

[TheKoR]

DOn’t remove line int fstab

In your webgui : Image Path : /storage/images ? and good Management Username /password

/storage

Hi,

Your /storage is a local storage or a NFS mount from another system (like Other server, NAS, …)

My /storage is a local storage with all permission (chmod 777)

I just see in my webgui in image management a curious message :
I juste have 1 image created
image name : my image name
image size : ON CLIENT : 0.00iB
Image Size : ON SERVER : FOGFTP : Login failed. Host x.x.x.x, Username: Fog, Password: password (defautlt i didnt touch it for the moment), Error: ftp_login(): Login incorrect

@Seydoo Have you the .mntcheck in /storage/images and /storage/images/dev ?

y es I have it (created with touch command)

[Seydoo]

My problem is solve, due to a bad password (user fog on linux with not the same password than fog tftp user)

The problem was that you have a password policy that does not accept the password “password”.
